The minute this book landed in my lap I had an epic fangirl squeal!! It was all high pitched and not me at all, only very special series get that from me and boy, is the Kate Daniels series right up there. For those who are not familiar with this series, there is a very useful journal entry from Barbaras (Kate’s lawyer) which does a basic summary of the previous 6 books. It’s great to have it all summed up neatly at the beginning, though it feels a bit like…

I’m so pleased I wasn’t disappointed. There were many things I liked about the book, but one of the main things has to be the setting. The setting was great, it wasn’t quite fantasy, but I don’t know if I would call it urban fantasy either. It’s…

Magic Slays (Kate Daniels #5) by Ilona Andrews Ace Books (May 2011) | Paperback, 308 pages Urban Fantasy This series has fast worked its way up on my favourite urban fantasy series list. I just love Kate and Curran! If I’m secretly a bit honest, I think it would have been quite easy for me to discard this series after Magic Bites, the first book. Because although I enjoyed it, it wasn’t the greatest start. But this is a series that just seems to get better and better with each instalment. I…
